Chapter 82 Trouble comes from the mouth

(It’s poisonous late at night, really poisonous, please don’t eat, don’t eat, don’t eat!!!!)

He is in weak health now, and has to ask Concubine Yi to assist him in handling government affairs. Now is not the best time. He has to wait, and take her away with him when he goes down!

A generous hand patted her shoulder, "That's good to know. You have to understand who you rely on in the palace. Don't mess up the hierarchy. Be careful!"

Concubine Yi responded tremblingly and carefully stood up to massage Emperor Xianfeng.

Yongzheng is now as depressed as Kangxi. He, like his Khan father, practices frugality, but why is the empress dowager behind him so extravagant? He always feels like he is making clothes for others. He really can't swallow this!

[Empress Dowager Cixi was not only generous with her daily expenses, but even her use of the toilet was eye-opening.

People naturally need to excrete after eating grains, and even the noble emperor and empress dowager cannot avoid it.

Cixi did not like the unpleasant smell when excreting, nor did she want people to think that she would emit the same unpleasant smell when going to the toilet as ordinary people. In order to cover up this smell, Cixi lit a lot of incense and placed a lot of fruits next to her special toilet.

But she believed that she was the most noble person in the world, and even the environment for going to the toilet had to be beautiful and charming, and even the things for wiping the skin had to be of the best quality, so that it could be worthy of her status.

A high-quality sandalwood toilet with sandalwood foam and white tissue paper inside.

Before toilet paper was invented, ordinary people in ancient times still used wooden sticks, leaves, etc. as wipes. But Cixi did not allow such plain and hard things to touch her, so she thought of a way.

Special toilet paper was made for Cixi, but it still had a disadvantage - it was hard. So she asked a group of palace maids to hold water in their mouths beside her, and when Cixi finished using the toilet, Li Lianying waved his hand and the palace maids sprayed all the water in their mouths on the toilet paper without dropping a drop. This toilet paper was just the right hardness and softness.

I can only say that they are really not afraid of accidents. You know, there are a lot of bacteria in the human mouth, and ancient people did not have toothpaste and toothbrushes, so the bacteria content in their mouths must be even higher. As modern people, we cannot understand or accept it. 】

vomit~

It has to be said that even ordinary ancient people could not accept this kind of thing.

Everyone thought that you should just enjoy this by yourself.

Did Ying Zheng think that the first thing people in later generations would do when they wake up every day is brush their teeth? But they are not afraid of swallowing.

Tianmu also let them know a piece of knowledge, that there are bacteria in the human mouth. Although they don’t understand why, they are definitely not good things.

The scholars looked at the paper they were writing on and felt that there was a smell on it. Ah! Cixi, you have done a lot of harm to people!

The emperors could not have imagined that she would do so many cruel things just going to the toilet. It was really eye-opening.

Many white tissue papers from various dynasties were returned within one day, and the shop owners hated Cixi, a person from a different dynasty.

"As expected of him, he is the best general in the anti-Qing war. He brought down the Qing Dynasty with his strength, even though the Qing Dynasty was not that great at that time."

"This is just a simple example. She spent 10 million taels of silver on her birthday, 30 million taels on a play and the decoration of the Summer Palace, and even embezzled the military funds for the Beiyang Navy! She is simply spending money on people's lives, so stupid and vicious!"

"In our view, the demise of the Qing Dynasty was inevitable, but the emergence of Cixi really accelerated this situation."

"What's absurd is that at the last moment of her life, she actually left a will saying that women would not be allowed to govern and eunuchs would not be allowed to hold power. I can only say that few people would believe it at the time."

"She held great power and almost exhausted the wealth of the Qing Dynasty in her lifetime. She embezzled public funds to satisfy her personal desires and also led to the invasion of foreign powers. She is truly a sinner of the nation!"

"Although she promoted women's education in her later years and improved the status of women, her faults ultimately outweighed her achievements."

"When Cixi died, she was buried in the Eastern Tomb. The tomb was filled with her wealth during her lifetime, including calligraphy by Wang Xizhi and paintings by Tang Bohu, as well as countless gold, silver, and jewelry and countless burial objects."

"Unfortunately, all of this was stolen by the warlord Sun Dianying, and the carefully built tomb was reduced to ashes. Karma, hahahaha."

Cixi stroked her armor and a blush of anger appeared on her face. As the most honorable empress dowager in the Qing Dynasty, what was wrong with her enjoying herself? It was really making a fuss out of nothing.

Besides, she just had a meal and watched a play, how could it be excessive? People are just being hypocritical.

Kangxi's anger level was still at its peak at this moment. The silver cost started at tens of millions. The Qing Dynasty must be close to destruction. He had never thought that the Qing Dynasty would end in such a frustrating way. He thought it was just that the strength was not enough to compare with the foreigners. It seemed that the Qing Dynasty was still on the downhill pulley.

Yongzheng wanted Cixi to come to his time and space so much now. He would never let this evil queen go! She dared to embezzle military funds when she was watching from outside. How could he fight such a battle? How could he win?

Banquet, banquet, what? Will I die if I don’t hold a banquet? I really can’t imagine how I can spend 10 million taels of silver on a birthday!

Thinking about the fact that I eat vegetarian food every day and mend my clothes just to save money, and comparing it with the picture on the sky, I felt like I would faint from anger at the next moment.

Zhu Di: Wow, the most honorable Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty, brothers, take a look, she lives a more comfortable life than the Emperor!

Zhu Gaochi: Father is right!

Ying Zheng: It is better to get rid of such a queen mother. She dares to embezzle military expenses. The country is on the verge of collapse. No wonder future generations have been in such difficult times and hate the Qing Dynasty so much.

Kangxi: Where is the emperor? Where is the emperor of the Qing Dynasty? Why? They are all dead!

Tongzhi: Power has been taken away from me, and I don’t have much time left…

Guangxu: He has been imprisoned by her and the emperor has become a puppet.

Li Shimin: ...@Kangxi, are these your descendants?

Kangxi: ...God is going to destroy the Qing Dynasty!

They thought that what had happened now was the worst possible outcome, but when everyone saw the scene below, they vomited blood again.
